Focus. In order to get your work done as efficiently as possible you need to be able to focus. You have an aim and we want to help you reach it. But it takes more than just a quiet box without distractions. We know what it takes to create a motivating work environment. “Mine metsa” creates a poetical and playful, yet functional approach to focusing on what’s important. Yet tested and functional, it’s more than just a noise-absorbing product line. The products immediately become jewels in the public spaces and office interior designs.

Foreclosure. What “mine metsa” really does, is it creates new spaces inside bigger spaces. The tested noise-absorbing structure fights acoustic distractions while well thought-through product measurements protect you from visual distractions. The products are designed to dampen the noise level and screen off the office landscape. There are thousands of ways to combine the products, creating meeting areas, workstations, phone booths and what ever else your imagination allows.
